Global English: The Press Online

Hello everyone.A while ago, I promised to post links to newspapers in English from around the world. Reading the local press in various parts of the world brings you into contact with all sorts of cultures, as well as helping you to practise your English. And you may discover the subtle - and sometimes obvious - variations in the way English is written.Let's start with the United Kingdom:Daily newspapers include:

Egypt:Middle East TimesSaudi Arabia:Arab NewsFor an exhaustive list of world newspapers in English, visit The Big Project.For an exhaustive list of Indian newspapers, visit Indiapress.Recommendation: try a newspaper from a different part of the world each week. Then write a comment, or post a message on the Tag Board. Say which newspaper you read, and why you liked it - or didn't. Give us a link to a story you found particularly interesting.
